The alcohol isn’t present at all, unbelievable!
Its slightly sweeter than the American and French Oak versions. In the Reference the alcohol unfortunately comes through.

Bottled. A golden beer with a huge orangey head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, spices, hops, and citrus. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of spices and alcohol, leading to a finish where notes of acacia appears together with the spices, making it dry and bitter.

CBF09. 37.5 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow to orange with a bubbly white head. Aroma is the same as the two others: spiced and herbal fruity. Sweet and fruity and hoppy base flavour. Light wooden acacia astringent note. Dry and bitter finish. The acacia wood gives somewhat of an edge to the beer - interesting.

Bottle @ Ølfestival, Valby, 2009.
Pours hazy golden with a giant, frothy, white head. Super lacing. Aroma has soft wood, plant sap, apricot and sweet maltiness. Light carbonation, good creamy palate. Flavour is sweet, creamy, good hops, plant sap. Lightly warming. The Acasia seems to enhance the maltiness of the beer, actually making it the best balanced of the four. Still, the French Oak simply tasted better. And the Acasia is by far the best-looking of the bunch!
